“Iliana was great! She was very responsive and sent many updates and pictures throughout the day. She was loving and attentive to my baby Bailey and I will be using her again in the future. I highly recommend her.”
“Best ever. She was very understanding about my delayed traveling and babysat my dog for an extra 12 hours free of charge! Shes very sweet, caring, and I could tell my dog was very happy after a 3 night stay. Highly recommend”
“Alyona is very kind, understanding and had me at ease knowing that my boys was in her care. I received plenty of pictures and communicated with her while I was away and knew that tigger, prince and lucky would have a great time with Alyona. My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”
“Jatna is amazing! So communicative and flexible. Took our pups in with a last minute request and they were so loved. Will absolutely request Jatna in the future!”
“Priyanka and her husband showed great care for Sage during his 4 day 3 night stay. They are stellar animal lovers and will be my go to whenever Sage has boarding needs.”
“Excellent, Great, Amazing !!! This is first time I used boarding for my fur baby. And my experience with Jialarie was AWESOME. Daily updates and pictures, which I love will be using her again soon.”
“To say that Kessy went above and beyond would be an understatement. She took such amazing care of Chutney while we were out of town. He had some tummy issues during his stay and she was extremely attentive, informative, and pleasant throughout, even though she got more than she bargained for. Kessy clearly loves dogs and it was a comfort to know that Chutney was I'm such good hands.”
“Naomi was amazing! She was so communicative, comforting, and kind. She was ON TOP of things in every single way. I needed a sitter last minute about a week out from my family vacation. I was scrambling to find someone on rover and Naomi was available and excited to watch Genevieve! On top of that, Genny had a rough grooming appt a few days before dropoff, and got a corneal ulcer in which she would have to take eye drops and pain meds. Naomi without question agreed to helping administer them and make her comfortable. You can imagine how worried I was as a dog mom, leaving her with someone new and with a medical issue! Naomi made me feel so at peace leaving Genny with her. She's truly created a doggy haven at her place, with full range for them to hang out inside and out. I am so thankful I found her when I did, and that Genny had such a wonderful time! She was whining when we picked her up, she didn't want to leave! I would recommend Naomi many times over and would give her more than 5 stars if I could!”
“John really cares about my dog Barney. When I leave Barney with him, I know he’s in great hands. I have left Barney with John twice now when going out of town for trips and it went great. I highly recommend him.”
“Ryan has watched our pup Boots a few times now, and every time we do drop off, it’s a treat to see just how excited Boots is. Ryan is attentive, considerate, and kind - exactly what you want in a sitter. Thank you Ryan!”
“Euitae was great with my puppy! Communicated with me well throughout the time, sent photos and videos. I felt comfortable leaving her with a new boarder and would work with Euitae again!”
“Bridget was great! She is very friendly and took great care of our dog. She shared photos and updates, which made us feel better as first time Rover users. Additionally, our dog came home relaxed and at ease, so we know she was well cared for. We would definitely ask her to watch our pup again.”
“5 STARS!!!! Victor is a loving and talented pet person. He saved me in a last minute travel situation! I have a big & powerful dog who is doing her best to be good & calm, but does not always nail it! He was AMAZING with her!! I could tell that she felt totally comfortable and loved the whole 2 weeks I was gone. He walked her a lot and was very understanding about her special attributes & need to destroy toys. She slept in bed with him & was allowed on the couch, which was really comforting for her. I booked him the day before I left town and he was professional, pleasant & flexible with timing. He obviously has a great connection with animals & is an overall lovely person to communicate with on the daily (he sent pics & videos everyday). This is the first time I have picked her up after being away that she is genuinely happy & chill. Def book him!! I have recommended him to my whole family & all of my loved ones who own dogs. He lives on a quiet street with really wide sidewalks, good if your dog has dog reactivity. Perfect experience from start to finish.”
About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and love caring for animals. I’ve fostered 14 cats, including kittens, undersocialized cats, and cats recovering from surgery, as well as fostered two dogs. I’ve also been a neighborhood dog walker and have cared for family pets. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate different pet care needs. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide consistent, reliable care based on what works best for you and your pet. I have my own cat at home, so pets staying in my home must be comfortable and get along well with cats. I always prioritize safety and make sure every pet has a calm, comfortable environment while in my care. For pets who aren’t comfortable around cats, I’m happy to provide care in their home instead.
“I had a last-minute work trip come up and Alanis and Marco were able to step in without any hassle. They were really flexible and made everything easy on my end. I got consistent updates while I was away, which helped a lot since I hate being out of the loop with my dog. This is my second time booking with them and both experiences have been smooth and reliable. I’d definitely book again!”
“Yusuf was amazing with Tonka! He sent us multiple daily updates and was always quick to communicate with us or to clarify if he had questions. He has a backyard which he allows the dogs to run around in and was looking after multiple dogs, so tonka had the time of his life playing. Above all Yusuf clearly cares about the dogs he is taking care of and Tonka has never been so comfortable staying in a new place. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Yusuf again!”
“I was kept informed throughout my dog’s 10 night stay with Aleksandr. Marlee is picky when it comes to dinner but Alek ensured that she was eating. I really appreciated the meet & greet along with the pictures he would send as updates during her stay. I look forward to booking Marlee a stay with him again in the future.”
“Binta is great at communicating and taking care of all your pet’s needs. Leading up to my pets stay Binta was available for not only a meet and greet , but available for all my questions and concerns. This was my first time booking with not only Rover , but with a pet sitter . Leaving my puppy for 1 week scared me tremendously, but I was put at complete ease after communicating with Binta. She worked hard to stay on schedule with my pets walks and feeding times. She also kept him busy with park activities and socialization for my pup ! She kept me updated each day and was always available for communication! I would definitely rebook with Binta for future stays !”
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”
“Ryan and Jefra were the sweetest. They took really good care of my boys and constantly sent a lot of pictures. They were flexible and communicative. I recommend them for sure!”

“I’m grateful for Carmen’s check-ins on my cats… They were a bit shy, so she didn’t get to love on them, but I know they appreciated her making sure they were taken care of while I was away. And her updates reassured me that everything was fine. Thanks, Carmen!”
“Alex was great with my babies while I was gone for almost two weeks! When I got home I could tell they had been well taken care of, they didn't appear stressed at all which has happened in the past. Alex was super responsive and sent me such great pictures that helped relieve my anxiety. I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Jessica was so helpful and a wonderful pet sitter for my cat, Stella! She was very professional and kind and took excellent care of Stella. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Yismarlin was great! Very patient and kind, waited for my cat to come to her and respected his boundaries. Completed all tasks successfully. Was very communicative, sent pictures. 10/10 would recommend and rebook again.”
“Laudianny was the perfect sitter for my most precious possession Ted! She provided daily updates and it seemed like he got comfortable quickly. Within a day he was making biscuits with her so i know he was well cared for!”
“Michele was great! My cat, Piper, warmed up to her immediately, and Michele was very mindful of keeping Pipers schedule and routines. Would definitely book with her again”
“Briana was a life saver accommodating a last minute house sitting booking on a holiday weekend! She took incredible care of my cat including administering medication. She takes her role as pet sitter incredibly seriously and is extremely professional, communicative , and conscientious. She also left my place very clean and tidy. Thanks Briana!”
“So pleased with Arin checking in on my cat Nellie while I was away several days. She fed her dinner each night and kept her some company. Nellie is a bit shy and takes time to warm up and Arin was patient with her. Responsive, on time check ins, and shared how each visit went! Very happy with all of Arin’s help.”
About: Hi! I’m Ismelda. Animals have been part of my life for nearly three decades, and I have 29 years of hands-on pet care experience from caring for three dogs of my own and helping family and friends with their dogs and cats over the years. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. They’re family, and they each have their own routines, quirks, favorite things, and ways of letting us know what they need. My goal is to care for your pet in a way that feels as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I currently share my home with a tiny Chihuahua, so I have an especially big soft spot for little dogs with big personalities! Caring for such a small dog has also made me very mindful of the details that matter with smaller pets, from gentle handling and properly secured harnesses to being aware of larger dogs and our surroundings during walks. I also understand that not every pet wants to be best friends right away. Some dogs and cats are naturally shy, cautious, or nervous around someone new, and that’s perfectly okay with me. I’m happy to give them space, learn their cues, and let them approach me when they’re ready rather than forcing interaction. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs and cats and am comfortable following your pet’s established feeding, walking, potty, crate, playtime, and enrichment routines. For my feline friends, I’m happy to handle meals and fresh water, litter-box care, playtime, and companionship, even if their idea of companionship is watching me suspiciously from the other side of the room. 😸 Safety, patience, and consistency are very important to me. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for leashes and harnesses, doors and gates, feeding, interactions with other animals, and your household routines. I also prefer a Meet & Greet with new pets whenever possible. It gives us a chance to meet, lets your pet get familiar with me, and allows you to show me all those little details about their routine that only you know. While your pet is in my care, you can expect photos and updates, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your little (or not-so-little!) family member is doing well. And for my bilingual pet parents: I speak English and Spanish/Hablo Español. Please communicate with me in whichever language feels most comfortable. Whether your pet needs a walking buddy, some playtime and attention, a patient new friend, or simply someone dependable to keep their usual routine going, I’ll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you’re back home. ❤️🐾 Pet care is already part of my daily life with my own dog, and I’m excited to make room in my routine to care for other pets too. On Mondays and Fridays, I’m available in the evenings after my own dog’s walk, and I have more flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays for morning, daytime, or evening walks and drop-in visits. I prefer to keep my service area close to home so I can provide dependable, unrushed care without overbooking. For recurring clients, I’m happy to establish a consistent schedule when our availability is a good match. I care for each pet according to their normal routine and personality, whether that means a walk, playtime, feeding, litter-box care, or simply some company. As a small-dog owner, I’m especially mindful of secure leashes, harnesses, doors, and interactions with other animals. I’m patient with shy or nervous pets and let them warm up at their own pace. I’ll respect your home, follow your instructions, and send photos and updates along the way. English & Español welcome! 🐾
“Lauren is the best. It was our first time using Rover and wanted to be sure our sitter was responsive and experienced. Lauren was exactly that. She sent photos and videos at every feeding and playtime. We’ll certainly have Lauren back to watch Arlo soon!”
“Clifmon took great of my two cats. He was polite, professional, and communicated with photos while I was away. When I came home from my trip, my apartment was clean and my cats were relaxed, completely themselves, and totally fine! I highly recommend using him to take care of your pets!”
“Ambroja is great. She was timely in her visits and kept our cat well fed and entertained during our absence, sending us photos and short videos every time. It was our first time using a cat sitter and she made the process feel very easy and straightforward.”
“Jialarie was extremely helpful with our kitties while we were away for the holidays. Always on time and communicative if anything came up. Highly recommend her for your pet!”
About: I have experience caring for my own cat and have spent a lot of time researching proper cat care, nutrition, behavior, enrichment, grooming, and keeping a clean environment. I’m very attentive to a cat’s individual needs and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. While I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience yet, I’m responsible, patient, and eager to provide the same level of care and attention I give my own cat.
“I asked Alice to come back another day because my flight was delayed. I truly appreciate her flexibility and attentiveness to my 2 cats. Even if my Daniel tends to be hyper sensitive.”
“Brionna is AMAZING! I have a 2 year old cat that I recently adopted and was nervous as this was the first time I would ever be away from my kitty but Brionna’s calm and kind demeanor quickly put me at ease! She was so communicative leading up to the visit and throughout. Her daily photos and remarks let me know that Tortellini was safe, cared for and comfortable! Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be asking her to take care of Tortellini again :)”
“Selina was wonderful! I appreciated her detailed updates and cute photos and videos. My cat clearly loved her which is always a huge relief. I would definitely book again!”
“Kristina did a fantastic job watching my two cats. My older cat, Orion, made the task of giving him his medication very difficult. She was patient and flexible the entire time, and I came home to two very well cared for kitties.”

About: I love animals; I've always had a strong connection with them, and I give them a lot of love and respect. I feed them, bathe them, and let them take their naps. I also take them for walks and play with them. I'm not currently working; I'll be dedicating my time to taking care of puppies since I really enjoy being at home and I love dogs. I have a fenced-in yard and I can also keep them in a room I have available for this purpose. The puppy will be very comfortable.
“Kadeem went above and beyond to accommodate changes in both of our schedules. His care of my dog allowed me to work an event in the area and know my pup was cared for.”
“Imari did a great job watching our little guy. She sent great pix and took him for walks and spent quality time with him. We highly recommend Imari! Thank you very much!”
“Brandon was very kind to our pup, Billie. He was accommodating to having a meet and greet ahead of the daycare session and sent photos during the day to show us our pup was having a fun time. Brandon is also very responsive to texts. We'd be happy to use his services again.”
“Blade is a bit of a handful, and for his first time being away from home for a full night genesis did amazing with him !! She is very responsive, sends pics/updates Thank you sooooo much again !!!”
“Vivian is a repeat sitter for our dog Vini. Check ins are regular and our little nugget has many opportunities to socialize with other dogs while in her care. Vivian does a great job of vetting to ensure there is a harmonious pack which is greatly appreciated. She is experienced and a solid choice for a single or repeat booking.”
“Carmen took my puppy at very late notice and kept me updated with pictures and videos. I feel secure knowing my baby is in good hands while I’m working. Thank you so much Carmen ?”
“Tiffany was absolutely amazing with my puppy, Cosmo! As a new dog owner, I was nervous about going back to work, but she completely eased my anxiety. She took such great care of Cosmo and made me feel confident he was in good hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again moving forward. Thank you again Tiffany!”
“Alanis and Marco M. were absolutely amazing with Mila. From the very beginning, they were kind, attentive, and made her feel completely at home. They were also incredibly flexible with scheduling, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Mila was always genuinely happy to see them, and that alone gave me total peace of mind. I couldn’t be happier with the care they provided and would absolutely book with them again. Highly, highly recommend.”
“Emoni has a very sweet and caring energy. We have big dogs and she took care of them well. I dropped them off early morning because of work and she was accommodating. She sent me updates:pics throughout the day, something that puts my anxiety at ease when you leave your dog with someone. She took them on multiple walks throughout the day. She communicates very well and responded to my texts throughout the day. She has a daughter who loved the dogs. I recommend her if you want to feel like someone is caring for your fur baby like their own. I’ll definitely be booking her again. Thank you Emoni.”
About: I am a dedicated pet care provider that is comfortable with any animal shape or size. I am very passionate about my job and making sure the pet Im taking care of has all of its needs, and ofcourse some slight spoilage! I started out in dog daycares and moved on to do all kinds of animal care work. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies as young at 2 months old! I am educating myself to become a dog trainer and can help provide tips when it comes to building human-canine relationships. I can also do specials needs such as insulin shots. I am also in the process of becoming a certified Animal Handler in New York State, so I can further my education in animal care. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry baby! I currently work part time once a week at a Grooming academy. So i will have plenty of time during the week to spend time with your pet! I also live with animals so I am constantly spending my time walking feeding and caring for them. I walk the dogs at least 4 times a day. Morning, mid day, evening, and late night relief. Also depending on the weather a trip to the dog park. I live in a spacious apartment with 3 cats and two dogs. I have done my best to provide a sanctuary here for my animals and any visitsors who comes across us. I have one room dedicated to the animal with cat trees and soft spaces. Water fountains (for dogs and cats) and beds for lounging. I have gates for separation during feeding times and a nice big couch everyone is welcome to lounge on!
About: (PLEASE KEEP READING FOR LATENESS INFO AND PRICING). Hello, everyone! I am a college student who has more than 10 years of personal experience with a variety of dogs. I've raised and taken care of Rottweilers, Pitbulls, Dalmatians and Labradors in the past and currently own a 9 year old Labrador/Pitbull mix and 2 Rottweiles. I thoroughly enjoy taking care of dogs on my free time as I work out with my own. There's a big park with a dog run right next to me so your baby will always be taken care of and I also keep an AC in the living room for the hotter days. In addition to that, I have worked with dogs with separation anxiety and am very aware of the struggles dealing with that so I always make sure when I take a Rover booking, that the dog is never alone in the house. Furthermore, I have no issues sending pictures and videos of your baby as we all would like to know how our babies are doing when we are not with them. Thank you so much for taking a look at my services and feel free to book me up! FYI, I am very comfortable and very good with big and strong doggos :-). I take pleasure in giving your baby one on one time withNL NO OTHER DOGS at the same time as yours so that they can fully enjoy their time I go to school online so I am able to be with pets 24/7.

“Overall great experience with Jessica. Was able to accommodate a last minute change for Rocky's walk which was so helpful for me. Very good at communicating with you about your booking.”
“Nathan is a great walker. Since the meet and greet, Phoebe(my dog) and him got along together very well. Nathan was very understanding of phoebe being scared of the city noises during her walks and he even helped taking her out the building which we appreciate very much. He communicates very well, follows instructions to the dot and is very playfull with phoebe. If I didn’t have a permanent walker, I would’ve totally kept him. I recommend Nathan 💯”
“This was my first time using Rover and Victor made a great first impression! He was able to get my shy pup to open up and by the end of the booking, they were besties! He was very great with communication and always made sure to let me know how my dog was doing. Would recommend Victor to a friend!”
“Drew is fantastic! He offered to meet Mavi the day before the walk and it really helped to establish familiarity. She came back so happy. I know who to contact in the future 🙌🏼”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, small mammals, and turtles for 7 years and I love being around them I always treat them with respect and handle them properly. It fits into my daily routine very perfectly I feel like I will be committed and do my best to help pet owners and their pets with their needs.

“I’ve used Carmen few times, she was able to walk my dog Jasper in a short notice. Also one time she wasn’t able to make it, she was able to offer a refund, which I appreciate. I would use her again as she is communicative and easy to work with. Thank you!”
“Jaquelin was excellent and took great care of my Coco. She kept his walks engaging, safe and playful. She was very communicative and attentive to his care needs.”
“Liam (Lauren) is nothing short of FANTASTIC!!! Very attentive to all instructions, highly skilled with a range of temperaments - even my highly reactive dog, and is very punctual. I love how detailed relays info about walks - pictures, etc. Will definitely book again and highly recommended!!”
“Luis came in clutch with a last minute booking! I’m so thankful because I was traveling and it put my mind at ease to have my puppy taken care of. Tripp was so happy to see Luis each day and get his walks and play time. Luis is very confident with dogs who are sweeties but need redirection and a little extra support.”
“Jolie really came through for me and my brand new rescue, Irving. He’s still getting used to city life and everything that comes with it, so he is highly reactive and anxious. She was available the same day to do a meet and greet and was completely calm and unbothered by his jumping and barking even in her face. She put us both at ease and was really patient with him. She took Irving on productive walks in the middle of the day and he took to her pretty quickly. She is also very communicative and kept me apprised of location and how the walks were going. I’d definitely use her services again!”
“I am so thankful to have found Serge on Rover. My regular dog walker had to move away with little notice, and I needed a walker ASAP. Based on the reviews, I took a chance on Serge and knew I had made the right choice from the first time we interacted. He is so communicative, and I can tell he loves dogs. This is definietey the guy you want walking your dog.”
About: While I don’t have professional pet care experience, I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have always had a deep love and connection with them. From walking dogs to feeding, playing, and simply being a comforting presence, caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I’m attentive, gentle, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether your pet needs an energetic playmate or a calm companion, I’ll treat them like family and follow their routines closely so they feel right at home while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand their routine, behavior, and any specific needs to make sure they feel secure and well-cared for. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment free of hazards, and I always follow the owner’s instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or special quirks. I build trust through patience, gentle care, and consistent attention, so your pet feels happy and at ease while you’re away.
“Alex was our walker for 13 weeks! Multiple multiple times a week, she responded sooo quickly, soo professional and accommodating! Seriously my dog loved her and PJ and he walked so amazing!! She was able to somehow get him to pee in all weather! So glad to have found her thank you so much Alex!!”
“Clifmon was an excellent career for our pup! He was patient and very communicative every step of the way. Our dog had some trepidation the first walk and Clifmon worked through it very well and established trust for the rest of the walks. We'd happily have him back for walks any time!”

I received plenty of pictures and communicated with her while I was away and knew that tigger, prince and lucky would have a great time with Alyona. My boys do miss her and I will recommend and will book again. Thanks so much!”
“Excellent, Great, Amazing !!! This is first time I used boarding for my fur baby. And my experience with Jialarie was AWESOME. Daily updates and pictures, which I love will be using her again soon.”
“Naomi was amazing! She was so communicative, comforting, and kind. She was ON TOP of things in every single way. I needed a sitter last minute about a week out from my family vacation. I was scrambling to find someone on rover and Naomi was available and excited to watch Genevieve! On top of that, Genny had a rough grooming appt a few days before dropoff, and got a corneal ulcer in which she would have to take eye drops and pain meds. Naomi without question agreed to helping administer them and make her comfortable. You can imagine how worried I was as a dog mom, leaving her with someone new and with a medical issue! Naomi made me feel so at peace leaving Genny with her. She's truly created a doggy haven at her place, with full range for them to hang out inside and out. I am so thankful I found her when I did, and that Genny had such a wonderful time! She was whining when we picked her up, she didn't want to leave! I would recommend Naomi many times over and would give her more than 5 stars if I could!”
“Yusuf was amazing with Tonka! He sent us multiple daily updates and was always quick to communicate with us or to clarify if he had questions. He has a backyard which he allows the dogs to run around in and was looking after multiple dogs, so tonka had the time of his life playing. Above all Yusuf clearly cares about the dogs he is taking care of and Tonka has never been so comfortable staying in a new place. We wouldn't hesitate to ask Yusuf again!”
“Binta is great at communicating and taking care of all your pet’s needs. Leading up to my pets stay Binta was available for not only a meet and greet , but available for all my questions and concerns. This was my first time booking with not only Rover , but with a pet sitter . Leaving my puppy for 1 week scared me tremendously, but I was put at complete ease after communicating with Binta. She worked hard to stay on schedule with my pets walks and feeding times. She also kept him busy with park activities and socialization for my pup ! She kept me updated each day and was always available for communication! I would definitely rebook with Binta for future stays !”
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”
“Ryan and Jefra were the sweetest. They took really good care of my boys and constantly sent a lot of pictures. They were flexible and communicative. I recommend them for sure!”
“Jada was excellent taking care of my dog Coco. She kept sending me photos, Even though Coco made a mess on her bed, I’m so sorry about that, Jada. But if I go away again, I would definitely leave my dog Coco with Jada again. Thank you so much for everything!”
“Eric was an amazing sitter to my baby, Ruby! I just recently moved to NY and had to find a sitter for a trip that had been planned before I moved here. I would have never gone on this trip had I not found Eric. Ruby was so happy around him and from all the pictures I received, I could tell she was having a great time with him. He helped her socialize with other dogs, which was very necessary since the place where we lived previously didn't have many dogs around, he took her to the park to play and on the rainy days, they just hung out at home and cuddled. Her favorite thing ever! He was very loving and kind toward her and I know she's made a friend for life. I will definitely be contacting Eric in the future when I need someone to watch my baby again. I highly recommend him.”
“Natali took wonderful care of Griffin while I was away. She was very patient with all of his quirks and special needs. She was very communicative and regularly let me know how he was doing. I really felt like she made Griffin very comfortable in her home and cared for him as if he were her own. I’m also very grateful to her for being so accommodating when I realized at the last minute that I had booked for the wrong dates! I would absolutely trust her to watch Griffin again in the future.”
“Victoria is fantastic. This was my first time leaving my baby with someone that is not family. From the pick-up to the daily pictures and videos, Victoria made me feel at ease that Mavi was in really good hands. I was truly able to enjoy my trip and will definitely be booking with Victoria again (hopefully she's always available). Highly recommend!”
“Lal was amazing! She watched our puppy and was very communicative and committed to taking great care of him! It was our first time leaving him and we were so pleased with her and are glad to have a trusted sitter!”
“My dog loves Sally. She’s so good to him. I can leave town and not worry because I know my pup is in good hands . I would recommend Sally to any and all dog owners.”
“This was the first time being away from our dog and Nicole did a great job at making him and my family feel at ease! She regularly kept me updated with messages and pictures and took very good care of him. Will definitely use her again!”
“Ivette was amazing with Linnie! I got lots of pictures, and am happy Linnie had a cozy home with new friends while I was away. Definitely booking with them again!”
“Marina and Renata always take great care of our dog! They are very easy to work with, communicative, and send lots of pictures and updates. Our dog is always so excited once we start heading to their place!”
“Vivian and her hubby always take wonderful care of Stormy and provide great communication! They were available last minute and I am so grateful! We will keep using them! Thank you!”
